chapter 3 is now up


"Princess you ok?" Gwaine asked

"Yeah, we should get moving" Arthur said

They finished their breakfast then go on their horses and continued their journey to Escetia. Arthur could not forget the look of Merlin's face even if it was just a dream. To Arthur this dream seemed all too real


Where Merlin is


Merlin had not eaten since he had been kidnapped. Merlin could not shake the feeling that he was going to die here.

"Hello Merlin" Jack said giving him an evil grin "We have someone you should meet"

"Who is it?" Merlin asked

"Oh someone you know only but the name Morgana" Karan said being followed by the witch herself

"You" Merlin spat with a sound of anger in his voice

"Is that how you greet people these days Merlin" Morgana said giving that smirk that Merlin hated

Morgana eyes turned gold, sending Merlin in to the brick wall behind him. Merlin hit the wall with a painful thud then looked straight at Morgana

"I would have never thought that you would be the most powerful warlock that was to ever live Morgana said still smirking

"I don't know what you're talking about" Merlin said

"Don't play dumb Merlin" Morgana said "You know exactly what I'm talking about"

"I'm not helping you take over Camelot Morgana" Merlin said

"Oh Arthur and his knights are coming this way" Morgana said "It would be a shame if something was to happen to them"

"Morgana you can't, I won't let you" Merlin said standing up

"Karan, Jack take his chains off" Morgana said

"WHAT" Jack and Karan shouted at the same time "He could escape my lady"

"I don't think he will try if he knows was good for him and the people he cares about" Morgana said still smirking

"Morgana why do you always smirk" Merlin said as his chains were taken off

"I like to smirk" Morgana said

"Your going to wish you never took those chains off" Merlin said "Forbærne yfel"

As Merlin said this a ring of fire came round Morgana. Morgana was still smirking

"Merlin, Merlin, Merlin this is just too easy" Morgana said "Wáce ierlic"

This made Merlin hit the back wall with some force; Merlin's head was the first thing to hit the wall. Merlin lay on the floor unconscious, blood falling from his forehead.

"Keep this on him" Morgana said holding up what looked to be a collar

This was no ordinary collar; this collar would stop the wearer from using their magic. Jack put the collar around Merlin's neck and then stood back

"Why is he wearing a collar" Shadow said walking next to Morgana

"The collar will stop him being able to use his magic and Camelot will be defenceless" Morgana said then gave a witch like cackle. They left Merlin laid there unconscious not knowing what was going to happen


Few hours later


Merlin opened his eyes, he had a major headache, Merlin put a hand on his head he could feel something, He moved his had away to see dry blood. Merlin put a hand on his neck to feel a metal ring around his neck instead of his neckerchief. This was the first time that Merlin had thought about his neckerchief. Maybe Arthur found it and that would be why he's on his way here.


Where Arthur is


Arthur held Merlin's neckerchief in his right hand, they at the most were one days rides from Escetia.

"Sire, yesterday you screamed 'Merlin no' what was that about?" Leon asked quietly so the others would not hear

"I dreamed that I saw Merlin, being held over a cliff but the person was me but not me" Arthur said quietly sounding a bit embarrassed and worried

"Sire, don't worry we'll find him" Leon said

"I know Leon but I'm just worried" Arthur said

"Can you two ladies hurry up" Gwaine said "We have at least a days ride"

Leon and Arthur looked at each other before catching up with the others. Arthur muttered something about putting Gwaine in the stocks when they got back to Camelot.

They all wondered what they would find when they found Merlin.


Where Merlin is (night time)


Morgana went to see Merlin again; Merlin sat up against the wall. He did not know why Morgana was here but he knew that she had come alone.

"Hello Merlin" Morgana said

"Morgana" Merlin said

"Merlin I will give you one last chance to join me and together we can rule all of Camelot" Morgana said

"I will never join you Morgana, I would rather died then join you" Merlin growled

"Have it your way" Morgana said

Morgana pulled Merlin close to her before pulling a knife out, Merlin cried out in pain as the knife went in to his abdominal, the pulled out and was stabbed in the leg and then the shoulder. Morgana took the collar off knowing that Merlin was now helpless

"You won't get away with this" Merlin said gritting his teeth because of the pain.

"Don't be so sure" Morgana said leaving Merlin in the cell to bleed to death


At the gates of Escetia (night time hour before)


"Arthur we're here" Elyan whispered "We should split up"

"I think they would be holding him in the dungeons" Leon whispered "The people who took Merlin would have been working for someone"

"I guess that's where we should look first" Arthur whispered as they walked thought the gates and up to the castle.


A Few minutes later (in the dungeons)


Arthur and the knights had made it in to the dungeons without being seen, they could see two figures talking in a cell. They all recognised both people, one was Merlin and the other was Morgana.

"Merlin I will give you one last chance to join me and together we can rule all of Camelot" Morgana said

"I will never join you Morgana, I would rather died then join you" Merlin growled

"Have it your way" Morgana said

They saw Morgana pull Merlin towards her before they saw something metal hit Merlin, first the abdominal then the leg and lastly Merlin's shoulder. They saw her take some metal ring off Merlin's neck

"You won't get away with this" Merlin said, Arthur could tell he was in pain

"Don't be so sure" Morgana said

Arthur and the knights saw this as their chance to confront Morgana. They had their swords ready if they need to use them. Morgana turned round to see Arthur and his knights standing with their swords pointed at her.

"Well, well if it isn't my brother" Morgana said

"Morgana you are no sister of mine and give me one reason why I shouldn't run you right through" Arthur said

"Maybe you should not be so quick to acted brother" Morgana said "If you even realised you servant is the most powerful warlock to ever live"

"Your lying" Arthur said looking at Merlin

"Why don't you ask him yourself" Morgana said letting Arthur go to Merlin
